The significance of fertilization. 施肥的重要性。
C R Austin
{"title":"The significance of fertilization.","authors":"C R Austin","doi":"","DOIUrl":"","url":null,"abstract":"<p><p>The fertilization of a human egg, often thought of as initiating the life of a person, is in reality but the beginning of a beginning for one or more individuals. While pronuclear fusion establishes a diploid genome, this is at first a structural entity without function. No significant RNA synthesis occurs between germinal vesicle breakdown and early cleavage, and in fact embryonic genes do not begin to find expression until about the 4- to 8- cell stage. Gene expression then progressively spreads throughout the genome, during prenatal development and beyond. The progressive nature is well shown in the early mouse embryo by the widening range of energy sources utilizable, by the rising levels of glycogen storage and by the increasing uptake of nucleic acids and protein precursors. While HCG-B RNA is transcribed in human embryos about 2 days after fertilization, it is not expressed until 16-cell stage is not linked to physical or functional integration, each cell being inherently capable of giving rise to an entire person (together with a complex of placental structures); alternatively, cells from separate embryos on being brought together can jointly lead to the establishment of a chimeric individual. Multiplicity can also originate later, the primitive streak stage being the normal time for monozygotic twinning. Only when that stage has passed does true individuality exist, for (excluding anomalies) just one person can now eventuate. The gene-transfer function of fertilization can be replaced or augmented by intranuclear or intra-blastocyst gene injection, or by the use of teratocarcinoma or embryo-stem cells.</p>","PeriodicalId":75552,"journal":{"name":"Archivos de biologia y medicina experimentales","volume":"23 1","pages":"13-5"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1990-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"13306538","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The first, cortical asymmetries, is widely accepted today. It is now known that there are significant asymmetries in brain regions corresponding to the so-called \"language areas\". These asymmetries are present at the level of gross anatomy (i.e., length of the Sylvian fissure), and at a more detailed cytoarchitectonic level. Furthermore, it is known that, in different subjects, the extent of the asymmetries correlates well with the degree of functional lateralization. The second anatomical variable is commisural connectivity. The corpus callosum has been postulated as pivotal in the workings of a lateralized brain. There have been controversial reports suggesting a correlation between callosal structure and parameters related to brain lateralization, such as sex and handedness. Together with analysing these results, this review considers some aspects of the fine structure and development of the corpus callosum.

In addition, the major proportion of serum lipoproteins is catabolized in the liver. It is known that diosgenin and bean diet markedly induce biliary cholesterol output. In this series of studies we characterized the catabolism of several lipoprotein particles in animals fed diosgenin or a bean-rich diet (biliary cholesterol output is increased greater than 300% in these animals). Human low density lipoprotein (hLDL) and rat high density lipoprotein apo-E free (rHDL) were labeled with 125I. Rat chylomicrons were labeled with cholesterol-(3H)-oleate. hLDL clearance increased from 381 +/- 39 to 628 +/- 44 (microliters/h x 100 g body wt) (p less than 0.005) in bean-fed rats. The half life (t1/2) decreased from 12.4 +/- 1 to 9.8 +/- 0.7 h (p less than 0.005) in these rats. The clearance of rHDL apo-E free increased from 579 +/- 8 to 680 +/- 36 (microliters/h x 100 g body wt) (p less than 0.05) in diosgenin-fed animals. The t1/2 significantly decreased from 8.2 +/- 0.7 h to 7.0 +/- 0.3 h (p less than 0.05) in these rats. In contrast, chylomicron clearance and t1/2 were not modified by the diosgenin or bean diets. These results are consistent with the hypothesis that the number and/or affinity of the B/E and A-I receptors, but not E receptors are increased in rats fed biliary cholesterol hypersecretory diets. These studies suggests the presence of a functional inter-relationship between the biliary and sinusoidal pathways of hepatic cholesterol.</p>","PeriodicalId":75552,"journal":{"name":"Archivos de biologia y medicina experimentales","volume":"22 4","pages":"361-74"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1989-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"13634902","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We used Piriprost an inhibitor of LT synthesis or Epoprostenol (Prostacyclin: PGI2) in 4 series of rabbits treated with FFA or its vehicle. Piriprost given as an aerosol (0.1% W/W in THAM) scarcely modified the morphofunctional changes induced by FFA.

PGI2 administered in a dose of 0.1 micrograms.kg-1.min-1 5 minutes prior to a 15 min infusion of FFA was also unable to prevent most of the effects of FFA on the lung. Only the increase in DSPC in BAL was prevented by PGI2. Some animals received a smaller dose of FFA, because they died earlier. Piriprost, as well as PGI2, shortened the survival time of rabbits treated with FFA. This decrease in the survival rate of animals treated with FFA could account for the lack of increase in DSPC post-FFA. Since other morphofunctional changes induced by FFA were scarcely modified by both Piriprost or PGI2, our results suggest that it is unlikely that either leukotrienes on PGI2 may have a significant effect on pulmonary disturbances induced by FFA.</p>","PeriodicalId":75552,"journal":{"name":"Archivos de biologia y medicina experimentales","volume":"22 4","pages":"379-85"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1989-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"13634904","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The spermatogenic and androgenic activity of testes was assessed by light microscopy and by the capacity for binding hCG and producing testosterone in vitro, respectively.
